Chapter two hundred and thirty seventh

"Of course there is a relationship, and it is a big relationship. Keep up!" Lanaya smiled, followed the map's guidance, and walked towards the nearest carriage and horse.

It was evening at this time, and the city was bustling with activity. From time to time there were carriages carrying goods on the street, and most of them were heading in the same direction. If you look at the world map, it is not difficult to find that the northeastern end of the Violet Continent is close to the Red Cross.

The distance between the northwest ends of Yan Continent is the shortest distance between the two continents, so Santana City is obviously an important foreign trade port.

Although it is the shortest, it is also restricted by various factors. Santana City is located at the northern end of the Violet Continent. Only in the short three or four months now, the sea water will not freeze, so commercial activities during this period can only

It will be as frequent as today. After this season, the port in Santana City will be out of service, and we can only find another suitable port to travel south.

"Help us carry all these boxes into the car. Don't worry, you will be paid." A middle-aged man with a beard said to them as they passed by a store.

The people of the Hidden Temple are not easy to buy with money, but now that they are approached by a person who is about to go on a long journey to the sea, maybe he can learn something from them.

Everyone quickly exchanged their opinions in a low voice, and then expressed their willingness to help the middle-aged man with his work.

"Are you also going to go to sea?" Ranaya asked, indicating their purpose. They also wanted to go to sea. Yes, Ranaya had already made a crazy decision in her heart, that is, to get to the ice first

Go explore Fenggu Island. I heard there are ferocious beasts? But they have Luo Yin.

"Yes, I have to follow them to escort them. There is no telling whether I will encounter pirates on the way..."

Lanaya slowed down the movements of her hands and began to observe this middle-aged man. He was really not an ordinary person. His physique was much stronger than ordinary people, and strangely, his skin color

It looked very abnormal, especially around the neck and chest, where there were large red patches. I don’t know whether it was a skin disease or frostbite from the cold. It was such a cold weather, but I was only wearing a sweat-absorbent vest, and I was shaking.

Without even shaking, a long scar extends from the shoulder to the inside of the forearm. I don’t know what caused such a long incision.

It’s true that he is a person with fighting background...

"Uncle, which mercenary group are you from?" Ranaya asked again.

This actually involves personal privacy. Although mercenaries are a very great profession for ordinary people who can only live in mediocrity, and can be called honorable in public, in the field of mercenaries, this is not the case.

It's the same thing.

The competition between mercenary groups has never stopped. Generally speaking, regular large-scale mercenary groups will only go out as a whole team. Relatively speaking, the person who can afford to hire an entire mercenary group is

Very rare. For mercenaries, employers can already be regarded as a resource, and in order to compete for such resources, there will be many sparks, and even worse, blood will be drawn easily. Therefore, when mercenaries are alone,

, will not reveal his identity easily.

The middle-aged man sighed and answered reluctantly: "This is no longer an honor. The White Tiger Mercenary Group has long since declined."

Lanaya was slightly startled, but her hand movements remained steady. After placing the box, she continued to lift the next one, still wondering: "Why did I hear the elders say that the White Tiger Mercenary Group is very strong?

"

"Ah? White Tiger Mercenary Group?" Grint was also shocked.

boom!

The box in Arnold's hand slipped and hit the ground hard. He didn't know what was inside. It made a loud bang, but at least it was not broken. Arnold wanted to move it again, but Grint's next sentence

This made Arnold unable to move the box anymore.

"You were the ones who escorted the caravan across the Meka Mountains? But then you were... uh, you were given..."

Lanaya really wants to scold Grint, can she say something to make others happy?

Next, the middle-aged man stopped what he was doing without any warning, looked at Lanaya who was closest to him, and looked up and down several times. Lanaya also knew that he was looking at her, but

Still continuing to move, without looking at him, he asked: "What's behind me?"

"No. I said, girl, your hair is so long!"

The middle-aged man smiled innocently at her a few times, then continued to move things with his head down.

Although this was not a compliment, Lanaya still said thank you. However, a voice behind her made her a little embarrassed.

"You have to be careful when your little boyfriend is not here, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to him when you go back!"

This tone, this tone, I knew it was Grint from the first word. Although he was just a passerby, this middle-aged man was at least two rounds older than them. Don't you know how to show respect in front of your elders?

Speaking of long hair, Lanaya also has a hair tie given by Arnold's aunt, which is very convenient, but she hasn't found anything particularly useful. At this time, she conveniently put a hair tie on it.

With a stroke, the scorpion tail that hangs down to the waist is neatly tied behind the head, making it much easier to carry things.

"Where are you going?" the middle-aged man asked. When he saw Lanaya pulling up her hair at some point, he frowned slightly and looked a little surprised in his eyes.

Arnold still couldn't lift his box. I don't know if he was too thin or he was too thickly dressed. In the end, Merry, who was hiding behind and wearing normal clothes to hide his identity, came to help, and the two of them lifted the box together.

.

"The frozen island...Haha, are we crazy?" Lanaya laughed.

With the help of so many people, the moving speed was very fast, and more and more boxes were piled on the cart behind the horses. Soon, all the boxes on the ground were swept away.

"A frozen island? Yes, there's nothing wrong with being crazy when you're young! Don't wait until you're old to regret it..." The middle-aged man also laughed. After putting down the last box in his hand, he took out a bag from nowhere.

Hanging the towel around his neck, he walked straight towards Lanaya and said, "It's really a pleasure to work with you. Since you helped me, why not let us give you a ride!"

"Really or fake? Is it okay?"

"There are no passenger ships to the frozen island at the dock! If you want to come, hurry up and follow!" The middle-aged man raised his legs and got on the horse. The car was already piled with goods, so they could only walk behind.

Looking from the side, it's a little strange. On the street, eleven young faces are sparsely following a carriage. They don't look like bodyguards, so what do they look like?

After passing through half of the city, they arrived at the dock in a short time. The cargo ship was painted brick red and was so huge that from the shore, you even had to raise your head to see the people standing on the ship. Everyone

Then we came to the bottom of the stairs extending from the freighter, and spent some time loading the goods one by one onto the ship.

After everything was settled, the middle-aged man waved to them and motioned for them to get on the boat.

Lanaya looked at the boat and asked, "How many people are there in total? Can it still hold us?"

"Hundred people, don't worry, she is a big cargo ship. You can't sink it even if you ask a hundred people to get on it."

"Where is your destination?"

"Thunder Port, we have to sail for more than half a month to get there."

"What are these goods?"

"Mostly red wine, and some canned fish."

"Uncle, how much do you have to earn on this trip?"

"Salary is personal privacy. Girl, you have a lot of questions!"

"I'm sorry! But, I still have a question..."

"Let's talk about it later!" The middle-aged man's waving gesture seemed a little impatient.

"Didn't you send us there and leave? Then how can we go back by ourselves?"

"This..." The middle-aged man frowned, and after struggling for a while, he decided to reluctantly give up: "We will put down a lifeboat for you to use!"

This business is really profitable. If they had not met this middle-aged man, since there are no passenger ships sailing to the frozen island, they might have rented a boat to go there. They have no idea about the wind and waves in the sea here.

, the ability to respond to emergencies is definitely much worse than these veterans.

They only spent a little effort to reach the frozen island safely, and they made a lot of money by taking someone else's boat for nothing.

Eleven people walked onto the ship one after another and watched the strong men coming and going carrying goods into the warehouses that looked like small houses.

Someone walked over to the middle-aged man and asked in a low voice: "Master hasn't agreed yet, so...is this okay?"

"When the time comes, consider me buying it, okay!" the middle-aged man said with a grimace.

"Then let me go over and talk about it?"

"Okay, just say you won't get it for free, go ahead."

The man nodded and ran out quickly, making a clicking sound under his feet.

This was the first time Luo Yin smelled the sea breeze. He lightly clasped his left hand on the hilt of his sword, walked slowly to the edge of the sea, and took a deep breath of this unfamiliar and fresh breath to him.

The sky gradually turned dark, and after a long time, the sea surface was still calm. There was a slight vibration under the soles of the feet, and the sound of the anchor chain being dragged onto the ship sounded from behind, indicating that it was about to set sail.

Lanaya leaned on the guardrail, looking at the blurred line between sea and sky in the distance, reaching behind her head and rubbing the hair tie from time to time. It was not easy to use the map in the ring directly here, so she judged the current voyage based on her impressions.

The direction was indeed heading towards the frozen island, and the sea breeze blew up from Luo Yin beside him.

Others were already tired from playing before it was completely dark and went to their assigned rooms to rest.

Speaking of which, Meri refused to be crowded with the girls and insisted on staying with Arnold. Meri's behavior really made everyone except Arnold jealous.

"Do you like the mainland or the sea?" Ranaya asked.

"It's all good, but I prefer the snowy days." The cold wind blowing near the far north, Luo Yin looked at the stars in the sky and sighed.

"I hate snowy days."

A voice came from behind, and the two of them turned around in unison, only to see a circle of sturdy men holding various weapons bursting with psychic flames, already surrounding them. The middle-aged man in front was
Chapter completed!
